Online Text File Viewer

Open a TXT, LOG, CSV, JSON or code file of any size and read it with line numbers and search. The file is read in this tab and never leaves your device.

TXT · LOG · CSV · TSV · JSON · XML · MD · INI · YAML · code

Read in this browser tab. Nothing is uploaded.

A fast viewer for every text file

No upload, no sign-up, opens files with hundreds of thousands of lines.

Line numbers and search

Find text with a match count and jump from one match to the next.

Large files

Only the lines on screen are drawn, so big logs open fast.

Encodings

Garbled characters? Switch between UTF-8, UTF-16, Windows, Shift JIS, GBK and more.

CSV as a table

CSV and TSV files open as a table; JSON can be shown formatted.

Markdown preview

Read Markdown as formatted text or switch to the source.

More in the app

On Android: open files from any app, syntax colors, log-level filters and a JSON tree view.

FAQ

Is my file uploaded?

No. The viewer runs in your browser: the file is read from your disk and nothing is sent to a server.

The text looks garbled. What can I do?

The file uses a different encoding. Pick another one in the Encoding menu, for example Windows-1252, Windows-1258 (Vietnamese) or Shift JIS.

How large a file can I open?

Files of tens of megabytes open in a moment on a computer. Very large files depend on the memory of your device; the limit here is 300 MB.

Can I edit the file?

This is a viewer. To change Markdown, use the Markdown to PDF editor; the Android app is also read-only by design.
